Indeed, I developed this for `company-capf`-based backends.

I still haven't ported it to jsonrpc.el tho (I think, will check...)

I've been meaning to ask you: in the long run, do you consider
separating company's frontend logic completely so that a simpler
mode non-company completion frontend can be integrated with
emacs (one that would use company-capf exclusively)?
